Chapter 555

An Yizhi has read a lot of books. He knows astronomy and geography. He knows some in both ancient and modern times, at home and abroad.

But he is a kind of guy who knows everything and is not good at anything.

When I told the little girl about my journey to the west, I just finished saying that the stone monkey was born and occupied the water curtain cave to be the monkey king. Then I forgot the words.

But fortunately, he can make up

At the back, there were even the settings of the list of gods and the biography of heroes in Shushan. Not to mention foreigners, even Tu Hongyu, a native of the Chinese dynasty, was stunned.

When did Monkey Sun Worship Jiang Ziya as a teacher and be pressed at the foot of Mount Emei?

Maybe the system can't watch anymore, or maybe it's time to start the plot.

The waiter led three people into the restaurant.

They are a man and a woman just met, and an old man aged 50 ~ 60.

The old man must be the old count Tu Hongyu once met. At this time, he was helped to sit in a chair and walked tremblingly.

When everyone arrived, Ann had to stop making up stories.

——I don't know if Wu Chengen will live under the spring

"My name is burlik. I work as a lecturer in the University."

The young man introduced himself and asked anasta opposite him:

"Are you a professor?"

"Not yet, but I'm still trying."

Then he blinked and showed his shining teeth.

It's not so much a lecturer, but Ann thinks he's more like a male public relations... In other words, he doesn't teach how to pick up girls?

However, the literary girl anasta didn't respond. It is true that burlik is full of charm, but for her, she is not as interested as Ann Yizhi's miscellaneous stories just told.

However, compared with the other two, burlik is still friendly. To be exact, the old man is not very friendly.

He always spoke in a superior tone, as if it was an honor for everyone present to know his name, but he was polite when he introduced himself to anasta. I don't know why.

Maybe that girl is very high? Another aristocrat?

This is unknown, because anasta only said one name when she introduced herself, and didn't say anything else at all.

In other words, the names of European nobles are really terrible. The old man introduced himself in a long string, which is almost like chanting scriptures. In the end, an Yizhi and Tu Hongyu remembered Acheson.

This is not uncommon. If you are curious, you can go to Baidu to have a look at Picasso's full name, which is a refreshing three view.

On his left, the young woman is called Lydia. To the surprise of the two players, Lydia and burlik are not lovers. The truth is that Lydia and count Acheson are legal couples

It's so green!

So later, the two players looked at count Acheson with a look of forgiveness, and didn't take his arrogance to heart

The old man is also awesome. It's enough to be his granddaughter at Lydia's age. He's still a husband and wife. What did that say? My husband and young wife are so happy. Life should always be a little green

Aside from this, the people were wary of the identities of the two players. Especially after an Yizhi said he was a detective, he keenly noticed that the expressions of the three people opposite were a little unnatural.

Don't forget what everyone is doing here, looking for things and clues, but the detective's housekeeping skills. With such a strong competitor, you can imagine the expression of others.

However, anasta still had that expression, and there was almost no change. If she hadn't seen her smile, an Yizhi thought she was as facial paralysis as his wife Lin Linglin.

After the self introduction, we all had a preliminary understanding of each other. At this time, we should start to explain the details of treasure hunting, but the waiter looked at the clock and said:

"Please wait a moment. Another guest is on his way."

There were only six people on the scene, and there were indeed seven tableware. Sure enough, one guest didn't come.

"The person who came here should not be some death pupil?"

"No way. We all have to die when he comes."

The two players were muttering. They heard the sound of the car engine outside the window. A black car passed through the rain curtain like a black fish out of the water vapor, and finally stopped slowly outside the window.

An Yizhi saw a man open the door, take out his umbrella and walk quickly to the front door.

Fortunately, it is not a primary school student with black frame glasses. With the degree of systematic evil, even if it does appear, I'm afraid it is not impossible

The man entered the room, shook the water on his body and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. The weather makes the road too difficult to walk, so I have to slow down."

Then he gave the coat to the waiter to dry. He went to the table:

"I'm Abel Baldwin, Mr. Edward's lawyer and notary of his will."

If a will remains, someone must execute it. The lawyer named Abel is the executor.

He kept a carefully combed moustache and an evening dress, which made him more straight, but there were still some drops on his body, which damaged his image.

"Mr. Abel, I think it's time for us to talk about the details of Mr. Edward's will."

Count Acheson said arrogantly, but Abel didn't care much about it. He owed himself to the old count:

"Of course, that's why I'm here."

Then he looked to the waiter:

"Let's talk while eating. I think everyone is hungry."

The waiter's employer should be Edward, but he listened to Abel and soon pushed the dining car with another waitress.

The waiter took a decanter and filled everyone's glass with wine. When it was anasta's turn, she said:

"No, I don't drink. Please give me a hot drink, thank you."

She drank early at her age, so the waiter had to change her for a cup of black tea.

When everyone had a glass in hand, Abel raised his glass:

"First of all, let's pay tribute to Mr. Edward pickers for his generosity and the memory of this great mechanic."

Everyone raised their glasses one after another, and the two players had to pretend.

It's a tribute, but I'm afraid only the people present know how much they really mean. Anyway, they certainly don't gather for simple remembrance.

Putting down his glass, Abel took a stack of documents from his arms:

"Now let me read out Mr. Edward's will and the detailed rules of treasure hunting."

The two players cheer up. There may be any clues in the will.

But the whole will doesn't have much useful content. Basically, it can be summarized in the CG at the beginning of the copy, and the details are also very simple.

Everyone present has the right to find treasure. If he finds the treasure hidden by Mr. Edward before 6 p.m. tomorrow, he can inherit all his inheritance. If no one finds it, his inheritance will be equally distributed to all under the notarization of the law firm.

Yes, everyone, including lawyer Abel and the two servants.

When the waiter heard this, the expression on his face was quite interesting. Suddenly, he wanted to laugh, but his good professional quality warned him not to be rude in front of guests, but the distorted expression was a little funny.

However, except for the players, everyone didn't pay much attention to other people's expressions, as if they were secretly playing their own small abacus.

In addition, the candidates for guests here are not designated by Mr. Edward. Except for lawyer Abel, others are randomly selected, which is why the two servants don't know the guest's name and judge whether they are guests only by the invitation.

As soon as Abel's voice fell, he heard a series of buzzes of the whole hour from the vertical clock in the restaurant. Then he clapped his hands:

"Treasure hunting officially starts from this moment, but I'm going to have dinner first."

The system also sends a prompt.

[mainline task update: complete the mainline task before 6 p.m. tomorrow, with 30 hours remaining]

An ordinary copy of 30 hours sounds like a lot, but there is a night in it. Coupled with the sleep mode turned on by the system, there is still a lot of water in how many players are active in these 30 hours.

Everyone was worried, but no one left the table immediately to look for the treasure. It is likely that they are really hungry.

Lunch is very rich, from appetizers to dessert.

However, the system did not turn on the diet system this time. Both players ate something symbolically, mainly worried about the toxicity, although this possibility is very small.

The main reason why they didn't leave was that they had turned the whole mansion upside down before. They basically saw all the places worthy of attention. They were not in a hurry. In addition, an Yizhi wanted to observe the actions of these NPCs again.

From the current point of view, this copy is still full of harmony. Except for the old count who is wearing a green hat, there are no obvious contradictions and disputes among the people, but I'm afraid this harmony will not last long. An Yizhi has a hunch that someone will die in the later plot.

After all, there is only one inheritance. Although Edward's inheritance will be divided equally among several people when he can't find the treasure, how can it be compared with swallowing it alone?

You know, as long as there is one less person on site, the amount of property shared by each person will be greatly increased

Is it impossible to live in peace?

Yes, but very small.

An Yi pointed out that he is always used to thinking about the bad, especially people. He doesn't believe in any strangers and doesn't expect strangers' conscience. After all, human nature is evil

As the saying goes, people die for money and birds die for food. Peace at the table will not last long.

Naturally, after Abel read Edward's will, the atmosphere on the table became very dignified. Everyone just ate their own lunch silently. There was almost no movement except the slight sound of knives and forks.

An Yizhi watched the crowd quietly. He found that anasta didn't eat much either, but he drank a lot of hot tea. Compared with her, burlik, who claims to be a university lecturer, ate the most, almost all of them. The old count and her wife showed the quality of considerable etiquette training, elegant and eating as quietly as possible.

This shows that they are indeed aristocrats. At least it's not easy for ordinary people to learn this set of etiquette. At least they don't lie about their identity.

The most striking thing for Ann was lawyer Abel.

There was a scar on his finger, about two or three centimeters long, on the back of his hand. It looked very new. It had happened in the last hour or two.

The scar alone is not the reason why he makes an Yizhi pay special attention. What really makes an Yizhi notice is that he has a faint taste of Cologne
